Night Fire Destroys Two-Storey House in A Coruña’s Visma With No Injuries

A largely wooden interior drove a fast-moving blaze, according to municipal sources.

Overview

  • Witnesses alerted 112 Galicia around 1:30 a.m. after seeing heavy smoke from the terraced home on Calle Eira Vella.
  • Firefighters and police arrived, confirmed the house was empty, and battled flames from the front and rear façades through the night.
  • The interior was destroyed beyond use, and city officials later classified the dwelling as an infravivienda.
  • Crews from the A Grela station also forced entry at a separate address on Calle San Jaime to aid a man who was taken to CHUAC.
  • Early Monday, a ruptured water pipe caused a notable street leak on Calle Virrey Osorio near Hospital Modelo without significant damage.
